Comments

The Bank of Toronto Toronto Coin Club "80 Dollars" is a privately produced fantasy or commemorative piece issued for the club's 80th anniversary in 2016, not a circulating currency instrument of any kind. Henry's Bank Note Company, Limited — the fictional printer named in the imprint — is itself part of the joke, playing on the long tradition of numismatic souvenir notes that spoof the visual conventions of chartered bank issues.

The Toronto Coin Club was founded in 1936, making the denomination a straightforward anniversary reference.
